A single layer of ciliated neuroepithelial cells, denoted ependymal cells, lines the lumen of the ventricular system. In the lateral wall of the lateral ventricle, where a large number of neurons ...

The spinal cord exhibits limited functional repair despite the presence of endogenous ependymal stem cells lining the central canal throughout the cord. Loss of oligodendrocytes after a spinal ...

Their cross-species examination of primate and rodent spinal cords revealed new insights into the behaviors of ependymal and astrocyte cells following SCI, highlighting their dynamic roles in ...

Their cross-species examination of primate and rodent spinal cords revealed new insights into the behaviors of ependymal and astrocyte cells following SCI, highlighting their dynamic roles in ...

Particular attention was given to sparsely distributed populations, such as ependymal cells and tanycytes, specialized glial cells found in the hypothalamus and involved in regulating ...

Cryo-EM has solved yet another molecular riddle. In the September 6 Acta Neuropathologica, scientists led by Bernardino Ghetti, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, reported that ...

Those strongly affected included microglia and border-associated macrophages, oligodendrocytes, tanycytes, and ependymal cells. They found that in aging brains, genes associated with inflammation ...

The important CNS glial cells are astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, radial glial cells, and ependymal cells. Schwann cells, enteric glial cells, and satellite glial cells are part of the PNS.
